II IL Now Lent and the Ultra-f Fashionable
World Goes to Church with an Air Of
Penitence Al Least Part Of IL Does and
the Rest Keep Away From Balls-Never-

up the sackcloth and Ashes.
The Deutscher Fortschritts Verein
gave n grand ball last evening at the
German hall. II was an unusually
attractive affair. The committee in
charge Of arrangements made elabor.
ate preparations, aud il WAS highly
appreciated by the large attendance.
Away We go. all hands round. We
have passed through the mad gay sea-

February the society people have not
pretended to do anything seasonable;
they have been actuated by motives
higher and better. A good portion of
the winter has been devoted to revival
work. since then the balls opened
with grand tableaux; dancing, flirting
and fessting, followed this, and the
end Is not yet. The dresses worn
by the ladies ut last nights
event were gorgeous, and every one
was u wealth Of economy, thrift and
taste. The magnetism in a nicely
made up garment and the various
uses to which silks. satins and laces
can be put are seer It's known only TO
the dear ladies, and they 30 disguise

reporter. Are the ladies conscious OF
having anything more important TO
describe to the world than dress +?
Who cares? First couple join right

The Deal-A Baltimore View.

There are opinions and opinions as TO

"We have held, as long as the Baltimore

traffic, IL was a decided disadvantage TO the
business interests OF our city that The ter
minus OF the road should be at New York.
We now believe that the proposed conuec-
ton with the Richmond Terminal system
OF roads atones for any disadvantage which
the extension OF iher01i 10 New YORK amy
have involved. So far rs we can judge

In addition 10 combining the op r,ton OF
the law 10 railroads engaged In inter. 'tst

provides as follows:
"Nothing In this act shall apply 20 the

The same section allows railroads to give
passes to their own employees and to ex-
change passes with other roads.
We quote the above provision because
some persons have supposed that excursion
